Fine, thanks, and you?

I run 1152x864 on a 17" screen, so I know what you mean.  But I've been using
Visual Studio for so long, I've gotten used to being able to click where I 
want to go without having to wear out my spacebar.  BTW, in case you hadn't
noticed, pressing the 'end' key moves you to the end of the line.  If there
is spurious whitespace at the end of the line, pressing 'end' cycles you from
the real end of the line, to the last non-whitespace character, and back 
again. If you're sitting after the last non-whitespace character (where 
pressing end either once or twice puts you) and press shift-end, you can 
delete all of the spurious whitespace with at most 4 keystrokes.
